Learning Objectives
Objectives for the whole course
- Designing algorithms, their correctness and efficiency.
- How to think about abstract computation - develop algorithmic intution - how to attack a problem algorithmically.
- Algorithmic techniques - learn key techniques (greed, divid-and-conquer, dynamic programming, LP, ..) - which technique to use for a given problem.
- How to compare one algorithmic solution versus another for a problem
- How to express the algorithmic solution - pseodcode - steps - analyze - argue that it is correct - essentially how will you explain your algorithmic solutions to others?
